although madevil visits the forum often (from what I see in his profile), he hasn't posted anything in over 2 months. I am guessing he was not happy with the discussions that went on after the monthly fee was announced and people said probably not willing to pay. It's been 3 months since the first beta for 6.0 and 2 months+ since the last comment. I am guessing that the development of Madsonic is very likely over. Too bad, it had so much potential. There was an issue awhile back where some people challenged his process for making the source available and he got all ticked off and said he was no longer going to update madsonic and a bunch of people begged and trashed the people asking for the source and he eventually came back. maybe he is mad at all the comments that said they would not pay a monthly fee (i am one of them) and so he decided to stop and not tell anyone. An alternative scenario would be he has the finished version 6 just about ready and is about to provide it any day, and that's why he has been so lacking on the forums. Just based off of history, I'm betting on scenario 1. I guess i can go back and see if the original subsonic is still being actively developed or maybe someone has branched off and started a new fork.
